My Highness Hears My Thoughts, And Still Plays Along
Chapter 59 - 57: How About Doing Something Else?
CHAPTER 59: CHAPTER 57: HOW ABOUT DOING SOMETHING ELSE?
Looking at the gradually uncovered skin, Yun Ran suddenly felt that the scene and her actions looked somewhat like a rogue’s behavior...
With the night dark and the wind high, alone with a single man, she took advantage of him being asleep, lifted his quilt, took off his clothes, and held up a luminous pearl to admire his beautiful legs...
Yun Ran’s mouth twitched slightly, and she silently comforted herself in her heart:
[Nangong Mo, I am not trying to take advantage of you!]
[I just want to check your leg injury, so I know how to treat you, right?]
Nangong Mo’s breathing paused slightly, as if a pebble had fallen into the lake of his heart, splashing a trace of water and rippling layers of waves.
So, she had been worrying about his leg these past few days, actually wanting to heal him?
Yun Ran was already guilty like a thief, alert to every sound, and sensing Nangong Mo’s slight movement, she quickly hid the luminous pearl in her bosom and lay down swiftly.
Seeing that he showed no signs of waking up, she straightened up again.
She glanced at the pants leg she had cautiously rolled up for half a day, only to raise it less than two inches...
Yun Ran: "..."
[This won’t do! It’s too slow! And the higher I go, the harder it is to roll up, it will definitely wake him up.]
[I have to find another method...]
Thinking of something, Yun Ran smiled.
She channeled True Qi, gathered it into her fingertips, and slid it down from his thigh, along his clothes.
As her fingertips passed, the fabric split open, revealing the man’s long and straight legs beneath the clothes.
[See, it’s done! Tomorrow I’ll figure out a way to trick him into taking off this clothing and then destroy the evidence! Perfect!]
By the light of the luminous pearl, Yun Ran leaned in to examine his leg closely.
There was a terrifying arrow wound on the left knee, from which one could tell the arrowhead was diamond-shaped, the opening over an inch in diameter. Such a crossbow arrow had great power, enough to easily penetrate flesh, breaking bones and tendons.
However, above the arrow wound, there was a very shallow slanted cross knife mark, which should be the mark left by someone when treating him.
Yun Ran’s fingers hovered over that wound and that patch of skin, not daring to really touch it.
She didn’t know if it still hurt at this moment, but it must have been very painful at that time!
In the girl’s shimmering eyes like stars, a hint of hostility flashed quietly.
[If that person is still alive, find him, shoot two arrows into his leg, then heal him and shoot again, and again heal, and repeat.]
[If he is dead, dig up his grave and clip his bones twice.]
Just then, in the quiet of the night, a low and pleasant male voice suddenly came:
"Lin Wanyue, what are you doing?"
"???
Yun Ran was startled, abruptly lifted her head, and in the dreamy night, she saw Nangong Mo leaning lazily and casually against the head of the bed, looking at her.
His eyes were deep as though filled with countless stars, causing one to drown in them at a glance, unable to look away again.
Yun Ran was stunned for quite a while before snapping back to her senses.
She released her grip on his clothes, swiftly stepped back, and groped around on the bed, muttering:
"Huh? Where did it go? Why is it missing?"
"Nangong Mo, did I disturb your sleep? I lost an earring, and I was looking for it..."
"Is that so?"
The man’s voice was low and charming, slightly hoarse, who knows if he believed her?
Yun Ran could only continue to search, "Yes! I am looking for..."
However, before she finished speaking, the man suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist, with a twist, before Yun Ran could see his action clearly, she found herself pinned under him.
The man’s fingers lightly hooked her chin, and he chuckled softly, "I’ll help you find the earring tomorrow, for now, how about doing something else?"
